"Your religious beliefs are your business. They are not and should not be the basis for law. If you use them as justification to discriminate against others, don't be upset when others decide you're an asshole."
                                                     
                                                                                                                                     -Jim C. Hines



Did Disneyland guilty about their issue regarding the religious discrimination ?


Disneyland is an  amusement park wherein  children in specific goes to have fun and play. I personally liked to go there as well. Each and every individual whether old or young could definitely enjoy their moments in different rides. At the end of they day, it will leave you a big smile on your face as well as your accompanied with most perhaps your love ones.  Likewise, it will give you nothing but a happy memories that you can reminisce if your lonely and bored. Moreover, it is a perfect place to go.



Whenever I think of it I could say that it is a very nice nostalgia to all people who have been there. Also, we can certainly say that it is a paradise because it create unforgettable moments. 



But does these said description above convince all? Does the place Disneyland really make all people in general happy and comfortable?.  Well,  as I researched I found an article wherein the amusement park Disneyland in Anaheim, California to be in particular had involved in religious discrimination which means that the answer on previous question is no or it disagree. In addition to this, what my description earlier contradicted this one.



The first time I saw it I felt intrigued about it that's why I clicked the link http://www.gmanetwork.com/news/story/269629/pinoyabroad/worldfeatures/muslim-former-employee-sues-disneyland-over-religious-discrimination wherein in that it was sued  regarding discrimination by their former employee who is a Muslim named Imane Boudlal.

In this article, according to the latter she was  subject to anti-Arab and anti-Muslim slurs, including being called "terrorist" and "camel" by co-workers and supervisors. She said she reported the incidents to managers, but they took no action.


On that matter, when I read it I can't help but to feel sad because some people are being able to limit their ways of living their life with accordance to their belief because of somebody's reason that they can't violate the company's policy for how employees "look" while on the job.


But on the other hand, I think  somehow the company has a point on it. Because  on the first place the former employee is given an option and an offer before she work. However, on my points of view this is not good enough to be the reason.


All people should fight for their rights and freedom as long as you know that your right then why should you ashamed of it. Individuals who typically used to undermined others should be learned on their mistakes in order to stop prejudiced gradually . It could lead to a betterment of a country and at the same time it could make a peace and confident to everyone.  


Lastly, for me understanding, respect, equality and faith is the key in order for all people all over the world to have a harmonious and smooth relationship.
